I'm playing around with animations (trying to get good looking animated camera, by attaching camera to a bone of animated model). I can blend one animation into another, that's not the issue here. Problem is, that I blend one animation into the another one, and then ANM_ADD another cycling animation, but added animation doesn't get blended, so it looks really edgy... Here is what I'm trying to do: Quote: -player goes into the crawling, we blend into the 'go_crawl' animation -player is crawling, but not walking.. we blend into the latest frame from 'go_crawl' animation and then we add stand animation to it (to make camera wiggle) -player walks while crawling? we blend into the latest frame from 'go_craw' (here and in previous point, I do this to keep camera low, so it looks like player is crawling) and then add to it 'walk' animation, to make camera blob -player wants to stand up, blend into the 'go_stand' animation. This is pretty simple, but I can't get this one to work.. Any ideas? If I had separate animation for crawl_idle and crawl_walk, this won't be a problem but I don't have such animations.. Best regards. Looking for free stuff?? Take a look here: http://badcom.at.ua Support me on: https://boosty.to/3rung

EDIT: Added a little video to show the problem, notice when player goes into crawling, there is that jerking movement, that's caused by 'added' standing animation, same when player starts walking while crawling...
